To set a Timer's time:
After selecting the Timer's Address, the Timer value field is activated.
Enter the time.
You can also write the time into a Timer via the Timer list window
Note that the Resolution field is Read-only. The resolution is a function of the Timer Preset Value;
A Timer's maximum preset value is:
Note that the time format is: HH:MM:SS.hh.
Timer resolutions |
10mS (0.01S)(from 00:00:00.01 to 00:02:43.83 ) |
100mS (0.1S)(from 00:00:00.10 to 00:27:18.30) |
1000mS (1.0S)(from 00:00:01.00 to 04:33:03.00 ) |
10000mS (10.0S)(from 00:00:10.00 to 45:30:30.00) |
Note that:
A Timer value can be displayed in a Display as a current or elapsed value/
The Resolution field is Read-only. The resolution is a function of the Timer Preset Value.
You cannot change the resolution of a timer when the application is running.
A timer's current value can be changed at any time , including when the timer is active. The new value can be either greater or smaller than the previous value; storing 0 into a timer's current value stops it immediately.
A change of Timer Preset value without changing the resolution will take effect when the timer restarts.
Changing the resolution of the timer's preset value does not affect the current resolution; it is therefore recommended that the resolution not be changed while the timer is active.
During Stop mode, timers continue to run.
